U.N. Officials Bribed by Saddam?

[KevinTheOmnivore]

WHAT???????? WHA, JESUS, WHAT??

Brandon compared UN corruption to Haliburton corruption. Haliburton is a private company with close ties to our executive branch. They were granted large no-bid contracts by that same administration, to provide services in Iraq, the place where the administration with ties to Haliburton went to war. Follow?

This was a war. the Vietnam War was a war. Right there, the two have more in common. Are they totally comparable? I don't know, probably not. But there is nothing hypocritical about embracing the possibility of the argument, while simultaneously dismissing Brandon's (unless of course you mean "well all bets are off on comparisons now, nobody can make them, lest they be hypocrites".....or something).
